< Naxuum 1 >

1 Kanu waa warka culus oo Nineweh ku saabsan. Oo waa kitaabkii waxa Naxuum kii reer Elkosh la tusay.
A revelation about Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
2 Rabbigu waa Ilaah masayr ah oo waa aarsadaa, Rabbigu waa aarsadaa oo waa cadho miidhan. Rabbigu cadaawayaashiisa waa ka aargutaa, oo cadowgiisana cadho buu u kaydiyaa.
Yahweh is a jealous God and avenges. Yahweh avenges and is full of wrath. Yahweh takes vengeance on his adversaries, and he maintains wrath against his enemies.
3 Rabbigu cadho wuu u gaabiya, waana xoog badan yahay, oo kii gardaran sinaba eedlaawe ugu haysan maayo. Rabbigu wuxuu jid ku leeyahay dabaysha cirwareenta ah iyo duufaanka, oo daruuruhuna waa boodhkii cagihiisa.
Yahweh is slow to anger, and great in power, and will by no means leave the guilty unpunished. Yahweh has his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
4 Isagu wuxuu canaantaa badda, oo weliba iyaduu engejiyaa, oo webiyaasha oo dhanna wuu wada qallajiyaa. Baashaan iyo Karmel way engegaan, oo ubixii Lubnaanna waa dhaday.
He rebukes the sea and makes it dry, and dries up all the rivers. Bashan and Carmel languish. The flower of Lebanon languishes.
5 Buuruhu way ka gariiraan isaga, oo kuruhuna way dhalaalaan, oo dhulka xataa dunida iyo waxa deggan oo dhammuba way ku rogmadaan hortiisa.
The mountains quake before him, and the hills melt away. The earth trembles at his presence, yes, the world, and all who dwell in it.
6 Bal yaa dhirifkiisa is-hor taagi kara? Oo bal yaa u adkaysan kara kulaylka cadhadiisa? Cadhadiisu waa u daadatay sidii dab oo kale, oo dhagaxyada waaweynna isagaa kala dildillaacshay.
Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the fierceness of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken apart by him.
7 Rabbigu waa wanaagsan yahay, oo wakhtigii dhib jirona waa qalcad, wuuna garanayaa kuwa isaga isku halleeya.
Yahweh is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knows those who take refuge in him.
8 Laakiinse meesheeda wuxuu ku baabbi'in doonaa daad soo buuxdhaafay, oo cadaawayaashiisana wuu u eryan doonaa gudcurka dhexdiisa.
But with an overflowing flood, he will make a full end of her place, and will pursue his enemies into darkness.
9 War maxaad Rabbiga la damacsan tihiin? Isagu wuu wada baabbi'in doonaa. Dhibaatana mar labaad soo ma kici doonto.
What do you plot against Yahweh? He will make a full end. Affliction won’t rise up the second time.
10 Waayo, in kastoo ay la mid yihiin qodxan isku wada murugsan, oo ay yihiin sidii kuwo cabniinkoodii ku sakhraamay, haddana waxaa loo wada baabbi'in doonaa sidii bal engegay.
For entangled like thorns, and drunken as with their drink, they are consumed utterly like dry stubble.
11 Waxaa kaa soo baxay mid Rabbiga wax shar ah u fikira, oo xumaato ku taliya.
One has gone out of you who devises evil against Yahweh, who counsels wickedness.
12 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, In kastoo ay xoog badan yihiin oo weliba ay tiro badan yihiin, haddana iyaga waa la wada gooyn doonaa, oo isna wuu dhammaan doonaa. In kastoo aan idin dhibay, mar dambe idin dhibi maayo.
Yahweh says: “Though they are in full strength and likewise many, even so they will be cut down and pass away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more.
13 Oo haatan harqoodkiisa waan idinka jebin doonaa, oo jebbooyinka idinku xidhanna waan jebin doonaa.
Now I will break his yoke from off you, and will burst your bonds apart.”
14 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu bixiyey amar kugu saabsan, si aan innaba mar dambe jirin farcan magacaaga sii wada. Guriga ilaahyadaada waxaan ka baabbi'in doonaa sanamka xardhan iyo sanamka la shubay, oo waxaan samayn doonaa qabrigaagii, waayo, waxaad tahay wax la fududaystay.
Yahweh has commanded concerning you: “No more descendants will bear your name. Out of the house of your gods, I will cut off the engraved image and the molten image. I will make your grave, for you are vile.”
15 Bal eega kan warka wanaagsan keenaya oo nabadda faafinaya cagihiisa oo buuraha dul socda! Dadka Yahuudahow, iidihiinna dhawra, oo nidarradiinna oofiya, waayo, kii sharka ahaa mar dambe idinma soo dhex mari doono, waayo, isagii waa la wada baabbi'iyey.
Behold, on the mountains the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace! Keep your feasts, Judah! Perform your vows, for the wicked one will no more pass through you. He is utterly cut off.
